This is a picture of my first sculpted knife. I was lucky enough to win "Best Folder" at the Chicago Custom Knife Show last weekend. I believe this will be the direction my work will be going forward. Not that I won't continue with other types but I will concentrate mostly on Sculpted knives. Please let me know what you think of this piece.

I am no expert, but this has to be the most beautiful knife I have EVER seen. I am new to this and only doing handles right now, but if i had a picture of your knife i would frame it and hang it on my wall for inspiration . Excellent work .

Thanks for the inquiry. I might make one like this as a scale lock auto if you are still interested. Sorry for being so slow to respond. I need to spend more time on the computer and less time in the shop I guess. Let me know if you are still interested.
